The US Justice Department is suing New York City over its sanctuary city policies, targeting jurisdictions that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, in a move seen as an attempt by the Trump administration to pressure cities to change their immigration stances. The lawsuit accuses New York City of violating federal law by not allowing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to make arrests without judicial warrants. This marks one of several recent lawsuits filed by the Trump DOJ against cities with sanctuary policies, which are seen as a challenge to the administration's immigration enforcement efforts. The move is likely to have significant implications for New York City's residents and local law enforcement officials.
